“She’s a humanitarian
who has dedicated her life to working for the less privileged in Nigeria and
Africa especially for women and children. Her vision as the defender of the
poor in Nigeria fits into Hansei University’s motto of a practising Christian. Now
she’s part of our community." The university chancellor Sung-Hae Kim, said
"I was surprised that she
travelled here for the Church Growth International conference years back to
pray for Nigeria. For her selfless work, Hansei University confers this degree
on her,” Yonggi Cho, co-founder of the Hansei University, said
“I
was just doing my own thing not knowing that in far away Asia everything was
being noted. I want to assure you all that with God’s help I will do more. My
grandma used to say: `Whatever little you have, share; If you have a thousand
and you can’t share, you won’t share a million if you have’.” Mrs. Jonathan
said, thanking the Koreans.
The News Agency of Nigeria reported that the ceremony was attended by wives of the governors of Benue and Ebonyi, wives of the Chief of Army Staff and the Chief of Naval Staff, among other dignitaries.
